I Love Indian Music Very Much, But

Benny Goodman Was One Of The Big Influences As A Clarinet Player. That's Why I Wanted The Clarinet.

Labels Don't Mean Anything To Me. I'm Trying To Play As Passionately As I'm Able To. If They Want To Call That Cool, That's Fine. Just Spell The Name Right, Is The Formula.

I Understood That If I Wanted To Work, The Saxophone Was The Main Instrument. The Clarinet Was What We Call A Double.

I'd Like To Feel That Whatever I Play Is A Result Of Whatever I've Heard.

Most Jazz Players Work Out Their Solos, At Least To The Extent That They Have A Very Specific Vocabulary.
